"Fuck. Yeah, yeah, I guess you're right." Ashley forces herself to stand back up. "Everything's just been happening so fast, I guess I never really had a time to properly register and process everything. You know, keep pushing forward so I don't die and all of that."
"I get that." Lex nods. "At least you two managed to clear the air. Just, fuck, talk to each other more. Try to understand why the other person acts the way they do. Unless you two want to have another woman moment like this down the line."
"FUCK YOU."
"Fuck you!" The two of you hiss at Lex...before breaking out into a shared laughing fit. Even Lex cracks a smirk.
"Yeah. Shit, I can't really blame you for why you do this shit. I guess I just assumed you were a crazy schizo." Ashley rubs the back of her neck with a sheepish smile. "Guess all it took was just talking to you to actually understand, you know?"
"Yeah. Funny how that works. And I guess I understand why you're so worried about me being a schizo." You shrug. "...Wanna see something blow up?"
"YES."
"FUCK YES." Lex and Ashley yell at the same time. Immediately on cue, the three of you are shunted over to what appears to be the engine room of the Admiral's Ship. Ah. Funny. You promptly plant your pipe bombs and frag grenades by the engine of the ship before starting a 30 minute timer on the pipe bomb-
OH GOD YOU'RE GETTING WARPED AGAIN.
By the time the three of you regain your senses, you're already back on the S.S. FREEDOM. Lex and Ashley have to take a moment to purge their stomachs due to the sheer nausea of being teleported all over the place. You notice that you three have teleported right next to the Admiral's corpse. Hm. "Hey, Lex, Ashley. Mind getting the other two real quick?"
It takes a moment for them to recover but once they purge their stomachs, Lex flashes a thumbs up and rushes over to get Adam and Benedict. He returns with the two goons...and Abraham? Abraham simply flashes a small smile before holding out a small package to you. Oh! Pay day. You hand him over the Victorian Bell and, after he checks it over, he nods and hands you another package.
"For the services provided for killing that foul beast, I must give you this." He hands over some small envelopes to your other allies. When they open their own envelopes, each of them has $350 in them. "I know she has paid you already but consider this a treat from me." Shame that you can't use THAT money but to be frank, your allies deserve it.
You check through your packages.
>MISSON COMPLETED!
>OPTIONAL OBJECTIVE: COMPLETED! CHECKMATED THE ADMIRAL: COMPLETED!
>REWARDS: $1888, +2 VIOLENCE and +1 MAX FLESH PERMANENTLY TO YOU AND ALL ALLIES, 4 A-ENERGY CAPSULES, 3 BOXES OF HIGH QUALITY SEAFOOD (If used on a corporate entity or representative, counts as using a CORPORATE FAVOR. If used on an ally, +1 RAPPORT)
Kickass! You gesture at your four allies and the Captain to follow you as you stand by the Admiral's corpse. You gotta take a picture of this.
